No Hiller tonight, Ducks fans

Jonas Hiller's much anticipated return to the ice will not come Wednesday night.

The Ducks' No. 1 goaltender is expected to make his 2011 preseason debut on the road, either at San Jose on Friday or at Vancouver on Saturday.

Hiller missed much of the second half of last season and the playoffs with vertigo symptoms. He worked out Wednesday morning in the Ducks' second session, which was for players not playing Wednesday night against the Sharks at 7 p.m. at Honda Center.

In goal for the Ducks instead will be Jeff Deslauriers and Iiro Tarkki.
